The Fun Factory Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Thought I would comment on his time at Villa. Just gets on with the job when required. Probably why he has less than 100 pages of comments in nearly 4 years at the club. Pound for pound has been a really good signing and has played a really big part in our promotion and subsequent re-establishment in the top flight. I am sure he could get a championship club for next season. He must have a couple of years left in him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Would like him back in a coaching capacity as seems to be on the cards. Seemed a big presence around the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talldarkandransome Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Similar to Hutton for me, not the greatest player but always did what was asked of him. I'm sure he'll get another contract from someone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I'll be honest and say when we signed him and the Bruce years I hated him, he was the epitome of Bruce ball, that minute+ long spell of pointless passes across the back 4 followed by a long ball down the line in to space behind his opposite full back for someone to chase down, urgh really pissed me off, horrible football Under Smith he was OK, solid back up, great crosser from deep Great guy off the pitch no doubt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted May 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2021 It's actually quite emotional. Been an incredible servant, especially at the price. In an ideal world you would want to keep all of the lads who helped us up in some capacity. I'll never forget Elmos passion from the sidelines, truly became " One of us " whether he was playing or not. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steero113 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Good luck Elmo. I really hope to see you back as a coach at Bodymoor in a few years but you have got one more contract left in you. Top bloke, model professional and clearly love Aston Villa. Best wishes to the Egyptian King. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Good luck to the guy, never his biggest fan especially in Bruceball when he wasted possession so much. Improved under Smith and was a lot better. Premier League this season was probably a season too much though Seems a medel pro and will do a job in Championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a m ole Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 (edited) For a long time I wanted him gone, now I’m sad to see him leave. I got it wrong Elmo, you did what you were signed to do. Ta Just seen what he said about joining the coaching staff one day. Do it Villa. Edited May 28, 2021 by a m ole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I love Elmo man, he's been a fantastic servant. Extremely underrated played for us in the Championship - him coming in for Hutton played a massive role in our upturn in form towards the end of the season and je was arguably our best performer across the three playoff games. Just hadn't really got the athleticism in him anymore to consistently cut it at this level, but still put in an admirable shift when necessary and had a direct hand in some big moments for us from the assist for Trez in the semi-final, the equaliser against Newcastle and so forth. Big love for King Elmo, all the best to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
